First, I am going to cut and paste my post from the DH thread:
Been a while since I have posted here in MM land.
I respect a lot of your opinions, and it is good that some of you think the changes yesterday will help the herds.
The DH program will never look the same.
The Extended Archery folks better enjoy next year, that unit will become a limted entry archery only unit in 2012. Don't beleive me, just wait.
As for the rest of the "twenty nine" units, what a joke. Its going to take a year or four for some of you to realize how bad a decision was made yesterday, but just wait. When its been four years and you still have yet to draw a tag on the mountain you "used" to hunt, you might just get the drift.
SECOND:
It is still all about $$$. Thus, the soon to be new LE Archery Only Wasatch Units (thats right Units). These units will bring in big $$$ and oh the money they will bring in from the conservation groups!
I will also enlighten some of you Southern Utah folks who obviously need the education. The DWR will sell you all out so bad to keep revenue, and the fact that you don't see this coming is somewhat comical really. How will they do this - they are going to let every person in the state apply for your Southern Primo units and then when they don't draw they will keep their "preference" points and just draw a tag on some other unit, or buy one over the counter. So how does this affect Mr. SouthernUtah, now instead of 25,000 applying for 15,000 tags, you are going to have 50,000 applying for the 1,000 tags on your mountain every year. Good luck with that.
